AM/FM Radio
Model : NR38
Thank you… … … …
For purchasing this Emerson Heritage Series Cathedral Style AM/FM Table Radio. Just like the original cathedral style
radios of the past, the cabinet of each Emerson Heritage Series radio is made by hand using real hardwood veneers, so
that – on the outside - no two units are exactly alike. On the inside however, we have used only state of the art electronic
components to provide excellent performance and trouble free operation.
We have taken great care during the manufacturing and testing of this product. Every component in this system was in
perfect working order when it left our factory. It has been designed to provide you with many years of musical enjoyment
and trouble free operation with an absolute minimum of care and maintenance. If you encounter any problems with the
set-up or operation of this system, please do not return it to the retail store. Please call the Emerson Customer Service Hot
Line, toll free, at 800-898-9020. One of our representatives will attempt to solve the problem for you. If it is not possible to
solve the problem by phone, you will be instructed on the procedure to obtain a replacement unit.
Once again, thanks for purchasing this Emerson audio product.
The serial number of your system is located on a label on the back panel of the main unit. Please take a moment now to
record the serial number in the space provided below. You may be asked to supply this number in the unlikely event that
you need to call our Customer Service Hot Line.

PREPARATION FOR USE
UNPACKING AND SET-UP
• Carefully remove the radio from the display carton and remove all packing materials from the radio.
• Unwind and fully extend the AC power cord and the FM wire antenna located on the back panel.
• Place the main unit on a stable, level surface such as a table, shelf, or stand, out of direct sunlight, and away from
sources of excess heat, dust, vibration, moisture, and humidity.
POWER SOURCE
This system is designed to operate on normal 120V/60Hz AC house current only. Attempting to operate this system on
any other power source could cause damage to the system, and such damage is not covered by your warranty.
Note:This unit has a polarized AC plug with one wide blade and one narrow
blade. This plug will only fit into a matching polarized AC outlet. This is a safety
feature to reduce the possibility of electric shock. If this plug will not fit in your AC
outlet, you probably have an outdated non-polarized outlet. You should have your
outdated outlet changed by a qualified, licensed electrician. Do not file the wide
blade on the plug, or use an adapter to make the plug fit into your outlet. This
defeats the safety feature and could expose you to electric shock.

PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE
This model is equipped with non-skid rubber 'feet' to prevent the product from moving when you operate the controls.
These 'feet' are made from non-migrating rubber material specially formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on
your furniture. However certain types of oil based furniture polishes, wood preservatives, or cleaning sprays may cause
the rubber 'feet' to soften, and leave marks or a rubber residue on the furniture. To prevent any damage to your furniture we
strongly recommend that you purchase small self-adhesive felt pads, available at hardware stores and home improvement
centers everywhere, and apply these pads to the bottom of the rubber 'feet' before you place the product on fine wooden
furniture.
